BIOGRAPHY
MIKE WALSH
Mike Walsh is a veteran journalist, broadcaster and historian. A fugitive from
renegade Europeans, leftists, palace journalists, he has shrugged off their wrath over
50 years of writing. His Irish-American father, Patrick had fought in four conflicts by
the time he reached 40-years of age: The Irish peoples guerrilla war against the
British Army‟s Black and Tans. These armed irregulars, dredged from England‟s
prisons, were notorious for their viciousness. The Irish War of Independence and on
to fight in the most ferocious hand-to-hand battles during the Spanish Civil War.
Whilst on the frontlines he was a close associate of American war correspondent,
Ernest Hemingway. Mike‟s father formed an enduring friendship with Ireland‟s
celebrated playwright, Sean O‟Casey. Eventually his father served in the Royal Air
Force during World War Two as an aircraft fitter / flier. Kathleen, Mike‟s well-
educated mother also mentored his writing skills. A former novice nun she was a
corresponding friend of Spain's Civil War revolutionary La Pasionaria. From the age
of 26 the world-travelling Mike was consumed by a passion for truth and justice.
Inevitably, this led him to the potpourri of lies, infamies, cover-ups and crimes
committed by the Allies that militarily defeated the Workers Reich.
By doing so they ensured the spread of Bolshevism, denial of freedom to nearly a
score of Central European nations, the dismembering of the British Empire, and
surrender to American imperialism. The Allied victory ensured that Bolshevism
would fester for a further 45 years; this they call victory. Through the base stupidity
and race treachery the armed forces of the victors‟ empires destroyed the one
revolution that alone could have ensured the preservation of European culture and
values. Today, their dance of victory is the dance of death on their own funeral pyres.

DEDICATIONS
To Patrick my father with whom I disagreed to a point of estrangement I belatedly
realise that he wanted a better world too. He did it in the way he thought right at the
time; bravo. To my dear mother Kathleen for encouraging my love of literature and
writing. To my apolitical wife Nadia who tolerates me. Last but not least I express
patriarchal love and regards to our sons, Craig, Michael and Nikita.
FOREWORD
Researching Heroes of the Reich was for me uplifting. I know what a depressing
thing it is to write on topics relating to the conflicts of the 20th Century. Two world
wars, the scourge of Communism and since, the rapacious ferocity of Wall Street and
the NATO West dismembered and disembowelled Europe. An estimated 100 million
Europeans lost their lives. The White peoples of the world are now very much a
minority, thanks to these repeated acts of genocide and brother wars.
Tens of millions more Europeans suffered disease, starvation, they laboured and died
under police states and regimes, millions were deported. Add to this the post-war
European Diaspora of tens of millions fleeing the ravages of pinstripe suited
Bolsheviks of Wall Street and their well-financed cloth-capped mercenaries, the
Bolsheviks of Occupied Russia.
I experience a gamut of emotions. There is anger and outrage at the futility of war.
There is an indignation and abhorrence that creatures, I refuse to call them human,
could behave so monstrously towards fellow human beings.
Of palace journalists and their editors, documentary makers and establishment
historians, what can be said? Forensic posterity will find much human blood on their
hands. These are the poison pen scribes of the elite, the dark forces who profit from
war. Lurking in their editorial lairs, these hate-filled presstitutes set out blueprints for
war. Dwarfish editors condition people to kill people on behalf of their masters who
profit from wars. Their infamies are etched into posterity.
There is a ray of hope. Conflict also reveals humanity at its most noble, heroic and
selflessness. These are candles that light up all battlefields and bring hope to all wars.
I join others who adhere to the most noble of centuries old European principles of
valour in war. I salute our foes, I applaud their heroism, I understand their loyalties, I
am filled with remorse for their suffering, and I ask their forgiveness.
I am quite certain that, through Heroes of The Reich, I can demonstrate respect on
behalf of millions repulsed by the post-war denigration of our former combatants. I
salute the last gladiators of Europe, peoples of heroic epic. Germany, a nation smaller
in size than Texas, assisted by a handful of allies, fought heroically against the
overwhelming odds of the combined British, American and Bolshevik – Zionist
Empires. What a price they paid for their revolution against the four-headed hydra.
Today, their inspiration is the incendiary for the flames from which the phoenix rises.

HEROES OF THE REICH
SILESIA
THE SKY MY KINGDOM
AVIATOR HANNA REITSCH
29 March 1912 – 14 August 1979
„When asked why she had left the Fuhrer bunker Hanna Reitsch replied: “It was the
blackest day when we could not die at our führer‟s side.” She added with high spirit,
“We should all kneel down in reverence and prayer before the altar of the
Fatherland.” When asked to explain better what she meant by „altar‟ she replied:
“Why, Why, the Führer‟s bunker in Berlin.”
Hanna's ophthalmologist father wanted her to be a doctor; her mother was a devout
Christian who wrote daily to her daughter throughout her life. Hanna‟s ambition was
to become a flying missionary doctor attending to the needs of the world‟s
unfortunates. As a twenty-year old medical student she had her first experience of
flying. From there on it was for her cricket board‟s scores of firsts in advances in
world aviation. Hanna was one of the first to cross the Alps in a glider.
Born 1912 Hanna Reitsch was to become a legend in many fields of aviation and won
international acclaim throughout her pioneering career. The world‟s first female test
and helicopter pilot she added weight to the debate over woman‟s role in the Third
Reich. Certainly women were given free rein to advance their careers in the Reich
than in any other country.
As a test pilot, a job in which longevity is more likely to be shortevity, the pilot flew
every type of aircraft produced by Hitler‟s Germany. She was the only woman to be
7
awarded the Iron Cross First-Class and Luftwaffe Diamond Clasp. Only one other
woman was ever to be awarded the coveted Iron Cross First-class. Reitsch set over
40 aviation altitude and endurance records after World War Two. Many of them
remain unbroken. She is truly a woman who has been to where no other man or
woman has ever before been. Hanna Reitsch was almost certainly the last flier to
soar over her war-shattered Berlin.
It was this Silesia pilot who enthralled her world‟s admirers when she flew the word‟s
first helicopter. This feat occurred inside Berlin‟s Deutschlandhale in February 1938.
The aircraft that world-changing day was an FW-61, a small biplane fuselage with
two outriggers supporting the contra-rotating rotors.
She later recounted: “Professor Focke and his technicians standing below grew ever
smaller as I continued to rise straight up, 50 metres, 75 metres, 100 metres. Then I
gently began to throttle back and the speed of ascent dwindled till I was hovering
motionless in midair. This was intoxicating! I thought of the lark, so light and small
of wing, hovering over the summer fields. Now man had wrested from him his lovely
secret.”
Throughout the Third Reich era the pilot was devoted to National Socialism. She
worshipped Adolf Hitler with such passion that she begged to be allowed to perish
with him in the Berlin bunker. This she thought preferable to suffering the
humiliation of cruel torture at the hands of the Allies. A number of the Reich
leadership had or were ready to deny the victors their Soviet-style show trial justice.
Admiral Husband E. Kimmel, U.S.N Commander-in-Chief, U.S. Fleet spoke for
many hundreds of Allied war commanders in all theatres of war: "The war crimes
trials were a reversion to the ancient practice of the savage extermination of a
defeated enemy and particularly its leaders."
The fearless pilot flew a sail-plane into the heart of a thunderstorm. Soaring at
100mph she reached 10,500 feet at which point her controls began to freeze. As did
her Führer she seemed not only to be God protected but to be aware of it.
A Silesia born petite blonde who, despite her diminutive 5‟ 1” size, took to the air as a
fish takes to water. The skies were her natural habitat. As early as 1931 she set the
women‟s international record for non-stop glider flying. She was in the air for 5.5
hours but broke her own records repeatedly. Reitsch was to extend this achievement
to 11.5 hours within 24-months. In 1934 Hanna soared to new heights when she
levelled out at an incredible 2,800 metres. Hitler made her an honorary Fight Captain
and she became the first woman pilot to be so awarded. Her description for German
aircraft was Guardians of the Doors of Peace. Throughout the Reich she was held up
as a role model of female achievement. Her fame spread far beyond the borders of
her homeland. On her fifth test flight of an ME 163 she crashed. Before falling
unconscious she insisted on filling out her flight report. She was then five months in
hospital before resuming he flight pioneering career. ~ ~ ~ READ MORE

GERMANY
Günther Prien
U-BOAT COMMANDER EXTRAORDINARY
16 January 1908 – Presumed Dead 7 March 1941
Daring and opportunism by a German u-boot skipper sent the pride of Britain‟s Royal
Navy, the battleship Royal Oak to the bottom of Scapa Flow. This island haven, a
fortress harbor on Scotland‟s west coast, was used by Britain‟s naval forces from
which Royal Navy ships attacked German shipping in the North Sea. The facts are
well documented in respect of this humiliating disaster that befell this great British
warship ship and many of its ratings. There could however be no question, during or
after the war, of giving the German armed forces for any credit for such valor. One
can well imagine that had a British submarine as daringly penetrated an impregnable
harbor used by the Kriegsmarine there would be more television repeats than there
have been for The Great Escape and The Sound of Music. Such is the nature of war
being written by the victors.
On 4 October 1939, under a clear night sky, U-boot U-47 commander Lieutenant
Gunther Prien skillfully steered his submarine through the eastern channels of this
heavily defended naval redoubt. There was irony to the impending exploit. It was in
the same almost landlocked harbor that many of Germany‟s fighting ships, when
surrendering at the end of World War One, were impertinently scuttled by their ships
9
officers rather than allow their use to the British foes. Gunther Prien would have
been well aware that in entering the unassailable Royal Naval lair he ran an extra
risk. If he was to fail in his objective then he would be handing the British a
propaganda coup that would settle an old score. It was a risk he felt obliged to take.
Günther Prien U-Boat Commander
Furthermore, with what he was about to do, it is inconceivable that Lieutenant Prien
could expect to escape swift and lethal revenge. The odds against his submarine‟s
escape were heavily stacked against him. For him the prize must have seemed well
worth death. Moving silently on the surface to avoid submarine nets the German
commander steered his submarine through the narrow rocky channels of one of the
world‟s most heavily protected naval citadels. On each side of his lurking craft,
clearly silhouetted against the night sky and island escarpments, were Royal Navel
block ships. The purpose of the lock ships was to act as sentinels to protect the pride
of Britain‟s navy concealed from the open seas. One can imagine the tension as the
U-boat crew, in the darkness ahead, spotted the pride of the British Royal Navy,
Royal Oak swinging at anchor. At first the German submarine crew thought they had
discovered HMS Repulse. There was hardly a whisper on board U-47 as a salvo of
three torpedoes was released and destined to wreak havoc. Their Royal Navy target
was fortunate. Only one of the three lethal torpedoes hit their target. This caused
little damage to the formidable British behemoth.

SWITZERLAND
THE ONE WHO GOT AWAY
BARON FRANZ VON WERRA
13 JULY 1914 – 25 October 1941
Of the great escapes during and after World War Two there were two German escapes
that become legendary. Both were turned into unmissable movies though each of
these are viewed with the more balanced and informed background by reading the
books of these sagas. I seem to recall that the escape of Luftwaffe fighter pilot
Oberleutnant Franz von Werra was said to be the only successful German POW
escape. This is not true. There were thousands of successful and unsuccessful
escapes from allied prisoner-of-war camps, mainly American and French, during and
after World War Two.
What is often overlooked is that, for the Germans the war did not end on May 8,
1945. There was no end of the war for millions enslaved after being transferred to
the USSR as reparations and who were sooner or later to die in captivity. Over a
million captive Europeans, mostly German, were to die whilst in captivity in French,
British and American concentration camps. For the eleven unfortunate Eastern
European nations, including East Germany, handed over to Stalin‟s Soviet Union by
the victorious allies, their ordeal never ended until 1989. Their war lasted from 1939
- 1989, a horrifying 50 year ordeal under oppression, secret police, torture, death,
gross violations of human rights and lack of democracy.
This was one of the most awful periods of hatred towards one‟s fellow man in the
course of human history. This outcome was the outcome of agreements forged by
Soviet dictator Josef Stalin, the unelected and unelectable Winston Churchill. During
conferences he was often too inebriated to think let alone talk. Then there was the
United States President, President Franklin D. Roosevelt. He too was inclined to over
tipple. He died during a stroke preceded by an agonising stab of pain in his head.
Baron Franz von Werra (born July 13, 1914) and sister, Emma were born into a well
to do Swiss family of German blood who had fallen on hard times. As was the law of
the time relatives were obliged to offer assistance. Responsibility for the care of the
11
two siblings was transferred to aristocratic German relatives. It would mean financial
survival and the knowledge that the two children would receive comfortable security
and education. Given his privileged background it was hardly surprising that Franz,
on becoming a young man wasn‟t short on self-esteem. At 22-years old he joined the
Luftwaffe and later was to see action in May when serving with the Jagdgeschwader
3 during the French campaign.
A highly regarded officer von Werra was promoted to Adjutant of 11 Gruppe JG 3.
Ever the showman, pictures of him cuddling the unit‟s mascot, a lion cub named
Simba, appeared in the German press. Later, engaged in the Battle of Britain, he
relished the destruction of nine RAF fighters, five of which were sitting targets on
their airfield. He was regarded as a bit of a show off and rather full of himself. If he
was over confidant he would soon prove that there was some justification for his
cocky self-assuredness. After his capture, a German prisoner-of-war was to say of
him, “He was an honest and pleasant young man, a bit of a showman with a
wonderful imagination, but a reliable and honest chap.”
Franz Von Werra was first captured on September 5, 1940. His aircraft had been shot
down over the Kent countryside by Pilot Officer Basil Gerald Stapleton of 603
Squadron. Countryside farm employees later told of how they were working in the
fields when they heard and saw a low flying German fighter. Its landing wheels were
still tucked into its fuselage and the disabled fighter was following the contours of the
meadows they were working in. The aircraft made a crash landing less than half a
mile distant from where they were working.
Arrested with just bruises and a hurt pride, Franz von Werra was taken to police HQ
at Maidstone in Kent. From there he made his first attempt at escaping. He was
picked up by a British Army squad and on this occasion he was transferred to the
barracks in the same town. He was not to be their guest for very long. The prison‟s
latest arrival was soon afterwards transferred to what was known as the London
District Prisoner of War Cage. At this location and at others he was interrogated for
several weeks. He then learned that he was to be transferred to Camp No.1 Grizedale
Hall in Cumbria. This region of North-West England is known for its rugged and
remote countryside. It is the perfect wilderness for those who want to escape far
from the madding crowd.
The young fighter pilot retained his cockiness and good humour. He thought at the
time that it would only be a matter of weeks before Britain sued for peace. Always
up for a challenge he determined on an escape strategy anyway. Within days of his
arrival at Grizedale he put his plans before the Escape Committee; German prisoner-
of-war camps had them too. There was nothing too spectacular planned. Each
afternoon the prisoners-of-war were taken in a group on walks through the
countryside. Typically these parties would be escorted by ten armed guards plus an
officer and two NCOs. Between the conspiring officers it was agreed that a
distraction would be arranged once they were in the countryside. Franz Von Werra,
taking advantage of it, would clamber over a stone wall and take cover until the party
had moved on. This would allow him three hours of light to lie low and to then,
during nightfall, put as many miles between himself and the POW camp as was
possible. ~ ~ ~ READ MORE
